Bulgur Pilavi 🍅
This Turkish pilaf is what I serve with my ‘Turkish style chicken’ and it pairs so so sooo beautifully with it! Quick and easy to prepare, giving you the perfect Turkish vibes you’ve been craving!! Recipe below! 🇹🇷
Ingredients- serves 4
2 cups Coarse bulgur, washed well
1 tbsp Mild red pepper paste (Turkish brand)
1 Chicken stock cube, dissolve into 3 cups of water.
1 tbsp Olive oil
1 Onion, diced
3 Tomatoes, diced
1 Green pepper, diced
3 Garlic cloves, minced/grated
1/2 tsp Cumin powder
1 tsp Smoked paprika
1/2 tsp Black pepper
Salt to taste
Method
Step 1 – In a medium sized pot, on medium heat, add the oil. Once hot, add the onions and garlic, sauté until soft and translucent.
Next add the green peppers and sauté for 2 minutes. Now add the tomatoes and stir fry till the juices release from the tomatoes.
Step 2 – Add the bulgur to the pot, and all the dry seasonings. Stir well to combine and sauté for a minute. Now add the chicken stock, stir and bring to a boil. Next, bring the heat down, cover and simmer for 20 minutes. The water should have evaporated during this time, if not, cook for a further 5 minutes.
Step 3 – Top with some fresh parsley and serve with my Turkish style chicken recipe! enjoy 😊
